Okay- LOOK at these limited edition beauts from Australis Cosmetics!!! The GEMS collection has been flying off the shelves in Australia...and guess what? They'll be arriving in New Zealand stores from tomorrow (the 14th) & Friday!

The collection consists of 4 new VelourLips shades ($17.50), & 4 new Metallix Cream Eyeshadows ($14.50), and these new jewel-toned shades are to die for. I know that MUO's will go crazy over these, so you guys will have to be super quick to get your hands on them. Once they're gone, they're gone! The pain (but also joy if you're lucky) of limited edition collections ;)

Because I love to spoil you guys, I have a couple of prize packs that include these new goodies- whoop! To go in the draw to win, simply comment below telling me what your fave Australis products are- and that's it! The winners will be announced on this post in two weeks time- good luck little gems!!!

​Aspect Dr products have been a huge part of my skincare regime for several years now, & are blessedly cruelty-free. The Deep Clean Facial Cleanser is frickin divine, & is suitable for all skin types. The formulation is a super gentle (but highly effective) foaming gel, with naturally-occurring AHAs which will exfoliate, brighten, & purify your skin. You can find out where your nearest stockist is by calling 0800 238 754.

Manuka Doctor hit the press big time last week with the announcement of Kourtney Kardashian as its new brand ambassador- if it's good enough for KK, it's good enough for us. I love a tonne of products in this range, but my current fave is the ApiClear Purifying Facial Peel- it leaves my skin feeling incredible! Containing purified bee venom & manuka honey, this peel is amazing for congested skin, & leaves it plumped & glowy afterwards. Check it out here.

LoveSkin is a recent find, & I'm in love with it. Having tried numerous facial oils, there's just something about this hand-blended NZ brand that makes it a stand out. My favourite is the Arohanui Oil, which is the richest & most hydrating in the range- it contains a blend of avocado oil, hemp oil, & evening primrose oil (among others!). I love using this before moisturiser at night time, because I wake up with soft, smooth, happy skin EVERY time. A must-try- have a peep here.

Will Trilogy Skincare ever stop bringing out gorgeous products that the world loves? The answer is no- because they are just so good. The Line Smoothing Day Cream is my go-to moisturizer for day wear, either on its own or underneath makeup. It contains one of my fave ingredients, hyaluronic acid, as well as Glycablend. This is Trilogy's latest innovation, a concentrated blend of pomegranate seed oil, blueberry seed oil, strawberry seed oil, AND chia seed oil (which is amazing). LOVE it.

Okay, I'm not saying that Sunday Riley products are affordable, because they are most definitely are not. What they are, though, is life-changing. This skincare is investment skincare. You don't need the entire range, but I do suggest checking out Good Genes Treatment, because there's nothing else like it. It's a moisturising skin treatment that contains lactic acid, & it really truly brightens, smooths, refines, & purifies your skin. It's miraculous, hand on heart. Want glowing skin? You can buy it here.

Lush is so beloved of MUO members, & it was really hard to narrow my favourite product down from so many! The Gorgeous Moisturiser actually IS gorgeous, packed with delish ingredients such as orange blossom honey water, coconut oil, neroli & organic avocado oil. It sounds full on, but it feels incredibly light on the skin & absorbs quickly. I use it at night time after my facial oil, & go to sleep feeling like a princess :D This moisturiser is best for my skin type (normal/dry), but they have a multitude of other moisturisers so definitely check them all out here!

I LOVE metallic eye shadows- the more pigmented the better. The Australis Metallix Eye Shadows are frickin amazing!!! When I first received these, & saw that they were a cream formulation I thought, "Hnnnng, crease-town"- but I was so wrong. The thick mousse consistency is gorgeous, & they blend like a dream. The range was initially limited edition, but they ended up being so popular that the legends at Australis decided to make them permanent- which is far less stressful for MUO's who want to snatch them up ;) The best part? They only cost $12. $12!!???@!!I swatched all the colours for you guys below- my personal favourite is Gold Gaga- it's the perfect punchy rose gold. Thanks to Australis, I also have one of each shade to give away- whoooop! So have a peep, & let me know in the comments below which shade you'd love to win!

I have nothing but big YAYS for Australis Cosmetics. Their products are equally high performing and affordable; the only trouble being that they're so popular that it can be an absolute mission trying to track them down. They sell out SO FAST. In this particular post I'm going to be talking about the Contouring & Highlighting Kit- something we've been talking about (and obsessing about) in MUO for ages now. This product sold out Australia-wide in just 2 weeks, so you can imagine how quickly it'll sell out here in NZ. I promise you as SOON as I know the exact release date, I'll let you all know, but it is looking to be the end of November/first week of December. GET READY!
